Does the company do business in the U.S.? The rules of civil procedure apply to civil cases. As I recall, the rules of venue specify that civil actions much be initiated in the same venue as the defendant. Which might be just the least bit problematic for one located in India.
And then we have to remember that the really big teeth are available through criminal prosecution. I wonder (even more) how one proposes to file criminal charges against an outsourcing company in New Delhi.

Likewise, a criminal act in the U.S. is prosecuted in the U.S. You might be able to argue that the crime itself did not occur in the U.S., but I suspect you'd rather do it here, instead of in front of a judge.
